The motor-actuated 3-pole outdoor switch-disconnector FLa 15/97-6400 is able to monitor the feeder with inthe isolators built-in sensors for voltage and current for faults.
Fault case 1:Occurs in the lower-level supply network (stub) a permanent fault current (e.g. short circuit or earth fault) andthen takes the shutdown by the upstream primary protection, the GRID-INSPECTOR IKI-50 (mounted in themotor drive UM90) is excited and dropped the switching command to the switch-disconnector.Then, the FLa 15/97-6400 automaticall disconnects the faulty feeder (dead) from the healthy power supply.A short time later, a reclosing of healthy power supply to take place and the faulty feeder of a review are subjected
Fault case 2:Occurs in the lower-level supply network (stub) a short-time fault current (e.g. lightning strike) available isautomatically shut down (short circuit interruption) by the upstream primary protection. Since this is not a permanent fault current, the IKI-50 in the motor drive UM90, is only excited, but it was canceled and no switchingcommand to the FLa 15/97-6400. The outdoor switch-disconnector stays ON.
